These options are summarised below: • a high speed rail station at Meadowhall • a high speed rail station at Sheffield Midland • a high speed rail station at Sheffield Victoria • a classic-compatible spur serving Sheffield Midland station. Responding to the demand for HS2 in South Yorkshire is particularly complex. Engineering challenges like South Yorkshire’s industrial legacy, environmental constraints such as settlements and landscape features, and the distributed pattern of demand mean that no single option so far suggested is clearly preferred. Whatever route HS2 takes through South Yorkshire and whatever station the new services stop at must also work for the other regions that HS2 serves. One of HS2’s strategic goals is to contribute to rebalancing the UK’s economic geography. Therefore any solution we develop needs to drive economic growth, support regeneration, and run as far as possible with the grain of local aspirations for development. In March 2015, the Government and Transport for the North (TfN) published a joint Northern Transport Strategy. This sets out clear plans for developing the northern rail network in future years. Northern Powerhouse Rail (NPR) will connect major cities in an east-west axis. As another of HS2’s strategic goals is connectivity with the existing rail and wider transport network, synergies with NPR are an important consideration and the technical practicalities of this for HS2 are reflected in this report. Any technical proposal we make must deliver value for taxpayers’ money, recognising that HS2 is a very substantial investment. We have sought to develop a solution within the budget envelope for HS2 established in the recent Spending Review.

The recent NAO report quotes £768m savings (excludes efficiencies and optimism bias), which includes both the southern connection and northern connection between Sheffield and Leeds. 3 HS2 Sheffield and South Yorkshire Options Report Summary of technical options Each of these options needs to be measured against the following criteria: ­ demand and transport benefits across HS2 ­ the needs of Sheffield and the wider region ­ connectivity with existing rail and integration into the wider transport network ­ topography, urban density and environment ­ affordability. High speed services to Meadowhall Station We consulted on a new station at Meadowhall in July 2013, and after continued consideration this report reflects the difficulties of delivering a high speed line into Sheffield city centre. Although delivering a station at Meadowhall would have some major impacts on significant local employers and development sites, and there are some engineering challenges at this location, our work to date suggests that this is a constructible option. Meadowhall offers good connections to Sheffield city centre and other regional centres thanks to strong tram and rail connectivity. Although effective as an interchange station, the scope for Meadowhall to drive local regeneration is likely to be lower in comparison to a city centre station. A station at Meadowhall does not provide connections to the city centre of Sheffield in line with the aspirations of the Northern Powerhouse Rail programme. High speed services to Sheffield Midland Station In theory, connecting to the existing city centre station, Sheffield Midland, with a new high speed alignment could provide fast services that are well integrated with local and regional rail networks, supporting national and regional connectivity, as well as driving growth in Sheffield city centre. The engineering challenges of constructing a new railway through the middle of Sheffield and the significant risk of flooding means that HS2 Ltd does not believe this city centre option to be cost- effective or sustainable. High speed services to Sheffield Victoria Station Recognising the strong preference of Sheffield City Council and some other local stakeholders for a station in Sheffield city centre, HS2 Ltd has developed technical plans for an alternative option on the site of the disused Victoria Station. This has the advantage that it offers greater opportunity for local regeneration than Meadowhall, but the disadvantage that Sheffield Victoria is a significant distance from Midland station and is not connected to the existing rail network. Linking effectively with the Northern Powerhouse Rail programme would require an additional station on the classic network. Our work suggests that it is technically feasible to deliver this route and station. However this option comes at a significantly higher cost than the Meadowhall option. 4 HS2 Sheffield and South Yorkshire Options Report Classic-compatible spur Serving South Yorkshire with a spur to the classic network represents a different approach from the three considered above. The challenges in South Yorkshire that we have already mentioned make it feasible to look at separating the issues of providing a core HS2 service to South Yorkshire from the HS2 route going north. A spur to Midland Station via the Erewash line would provide classic-compatible high speed services into Sheffield city centre (with an option to stop at Chesterfield), and the scope for these services to extend past Sheffield to serve the wider region. This would link in with Transport for the North’s aspirations of better connecting the cities of the North to the wider network. The additional scope to reconnect into the HS2 network north of Sheffield and create a loop is explored in Section 3.

  • 13R South Notts Rail Network
    report meeting CABINET date 23 JULY 2003 agenda item no REPORT OF THE CABINET MEMBER FOR ENVIRONMENT SOUTH NOTTS RAIL NETWORK REVIEW : THE RECOMMENDED STRATEGY Purpose of Report 1. To seek approval for the findings of the review of the South Notts Rail Network (SNRN) undertaken by Arup Consultants and to advise on the progression of the recommended strategy. Background The Existing SNRN Strategy 2. Both local and longer distance passenger rail services in the Greater Nottingham travel to work area were heavily affected during the Beeching era of the 1960s which saw the termination of a number of routes and the closure of many stations. The legacy of that era remains apparent today. The travel to work area is estimated to be the eighth largest in the UK outside London yet under 1% of commuting trips to the City Centre are by rail – a significantly lower proportion than in other major conurbation areas, where, typically, equivalent figures are between 10 and 20%. This reflects the relative dearth of routes, stations, and services to accommodate demands for travel within the Greater Nottingham area, and a lack of investment for upgrading rail facilities over many years. In addition Greater Nottingham’s present regional links are poor with the possible exception of the London corridor. 3. The current SNRN strategy was formulated in the early 1990s when it was known as the Greater Nottingham Area Rail Development Strategy (GNARDS). The strategy (shown diagrammatically in Appendix 1) envisaged the provision of two new main routes, for cross-conurbation shuttle services: S Ilkeston – Nottingham Station (via the Trowell-Radford route) and thence to either Gedling (using the former colliery line) or Bingham; 1 S Sandiacre – Nottingham Station (via Long Eaton, Attenborough and Beeston) and thence to either Gedling or Bingham.

  • UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction File Structure
    UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction This file gives detailed country notes on the UNECE tram and metro statistics dataset. These metadata describe how countries have compiled tram and metro statistics, what the data cover, and where possible how passenger numbers and passenger-km have been determined. Whether data are based on ticket sales, on-board sensors or another method may well affect the comparability of passenger numbers across systems and countries, hence it being documented here. Most of the data are at the system level, allowing comparisons across cities and systems. However, not every country could provide this, sometimes due to confidentiality reasons. In these cases, sometimes either a regional figure (e.g. the Provinces of Canada, which mix tram and metro figures with bus and ferry numbers) or a national figure (e.g. Czechia trams, which excludes the Prague tram system) have been given to maximise the utility of the dataset. File Structure The disseminated file is structured into seven different columns, as follows: Countrycode: These are United Nations standard country codes for statistical use, based on M49. The codes together with the country names, region and other information are given here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/ (and can be downloaded as a CSV directly here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/#). City: This column gives the name of the city or region where the metro or tram system operates. In many cases, this is sufficient to identify the system. In some cases, non-roman character names have been converted to roman characters for convenience.

  • Amber Valley Borough Local Plan Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report
    ClearLead Consulting Limited, The Barn, Cadhay, Ottery St Mary, Devon, EX11 1QT, UK +44 (0) 1404 814 273 4th May 2020 By Email Only Dear Sir / Madam Amber Valley Borough Local Plan: Sustainability Appraisal - Scoping We are writing to you in order to gain your opinion on the enclosed Scoping Report which sets out the proposed scope and level of detail of the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) of the forthcoming Amber Valley Borough Local Plan. Amber Valley Borough Council (AVBC) formally resolved in May 2019 to withdraw the Submission Local Plan (March 2018) to enable the Spatial Vision, Strategic Objectives and Spatial Strategy Policies to be reviewed. At the Full Council meeting held in November 2019, the Borough Council agreed to prepare a new plan through to adoption by 31 March 2023, with a plan end date of at least 2038. The new Local Plan, when adopted, will replace the saved Local Plan policies of the current adopted plan. ClearLead Consulting Ltd has been appointed by AVBC to undertake the SA and as well as a parallel Habitats Regulations Assessment. Scoping Report The Scoping Report is the first output of the SA and provides baseline information on the environmental, social and economic characteristics of the plan area, including the likely evolution of the baseline position which would occur without the plan. The Scoping Report also sets out a methodology and framework for the assessment of the Local Plan and its alternatives at later stages of the Local Plan preparation process. It also identifies the significant effects that the assessment will need to focus on.
